Good day
My dear how are you doing? I contacted you for the purpose of which I apologize if the business I want to share with you is against your ethics or principles but I believe you are the rightful person to carry out this transaction with me because you bear the same name as the deceased, let me introduce myself first. I am Mr. Allan Lim the Executive Operation manager and Chief Financial Officer in one of the leading banks in the Philippines. I contacted you purely because we are meant to discuss and carry out this transaction with %100 transparency and I truly appreciate your strong interest to know more about me, I have important business to disclose with you and you will never regret it and is for our mutual benefit, what I need is your consent to help realize it and share the great benefits together with me
I would like to discuss a US$15.5 Million business project with you. On December 29, 2012, a U.S business man made a numbered time fixed deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$15.5 Million Dollars in my branch. Upon maturity, a routine notification was sent to his forwarding address but no reply was received. After a month, I sent another reminder and finally discovered that he died along with his entire family during the Typhoon Haiyan in Tacloban city in November 2013.
After further investigation it was also discovered that the deceased did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit and he also had confidence in me, the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, $15.5 Million United States Dollars is still sitting in my bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year.
It is now apparent that no one will ever come forward to claim these funds and according to the Philippines laws, at the expiration of 7 years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Philippines Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I would like you as a foreigner to stand in as the beneficiary to my bank since you bear the same last name with the deceased, so that the fruits of this man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.
I can assure you that with your total cooperation and commitment, we are sure to finalize this transaction in the shortest possible time. My years in the banking sector coupled with business ideas had taught me that partnership requires transparency. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us to see this deal through, I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and I from the law and monetary bodies.
For your role in this transaction, you will be entitled to 60% of the total amount as your share and 40% as mine. I intend to use my own share for possible investment into any profitable business venture in your country. I sincerely appeal to you to keep this matter highly confidential and not to disclose it to anyone. This is most important to safeguard the transaction and us. My experience as a banker has taught me to be very secretive when necessary, and I think a situation like this requires absolute confidentiality.
Your timely response will be appreciated and if you have any questions feel free to ask for more clarification.
Best regards,
Allan Lim
